Quebec’s provincial gambling monopoly Loto Quebec has been taken for nearly C$1m by conmen who preyed on lax standards at a local casino. On Wednesday, the Journal de Montreal reported that the Casino du Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, Quebec had been defrauded of about C$1m (US$750k) by two members of a gang that has allegedly perpetrated similar shenanigans at casinos in other Canadian provinces.
